9 Geothermal What is it? Geothermal energy is the natural heat of the Earth.

10 Geothermal Powerful Energy Source Geothermal reservoirs can reach temperatures of 700 o F/370 o C (more than 3 x boiling) A geothermal reservoir is a powerful source of energy!

11 Geothermal Hazards Why do I have to know this? Lihir is a geothermally active mine. Everyone working in the mine is exposed to this risk some more than others Unless we take precautions there is a real possibility that we may be injured..so what are the risks?
